What a joke, can’t wait for an opportunity abroad.\nNow people in this country will understand why Quebec has its own laws and regulations on protecting culture ,I will protest my culture as a Canadian and not learn a new third language, the law says French and English as the official languages of Canada. \nYou can’t let the government import or change a countries culture only cause it’s broke …..”oh well” guess I better start pitching my tent at the nearest overpass to let others inn for triple the price! so my government can get the taxes

Let me guess. The solutions 2and20official offers is another oil guy from Alberta.

Last year almost 500,000 immigrants arrived in Canada. In that same time...less than 100,000 left. Does anyone here know how to add and subtract? The math says...that 400,000 more people stayed...than left. Not to mention...that the population is almost 40M to begin with. What this means...is that the title of your video is a blatant lie. But this is the internet. Lying is ok I guess.

Guess ill die

I guess a lot of people come to CA thinking it's easy to study and get a top job. But do they want to work? The housing has been a problem because everyone was told to come...if you don't want to stay, don't say everywhere else is great! That's not true. Why are so many coming here?

significant amount of black money is also being used in fiji to buy properties\nand guess what.. people are entertaining this

I have an idea of what this man at the beginning is talking about, not the homeless aspect but being turned down for nonprofit programs, I am on a government disability pension in b.c I was making some strides to better my life such as schooling etc, then my last living family member my father passed away in 2014 and more and became extremely depressed and had thoughts of suiside, I told my doctor what's happening to me, and he made letter after letter to mental health on my behalf, for some assistance, and I got nothing, because I did not fit the mental health criteria of sleeping in a tent smoking crack, meth or shooting up etc, I'm guessing because I was still paying rent and eating that I was not unstable enough to get any assistance, or go back to school etc but at the same time, literally tens of millions are spent annually on the coast for those on drugs and in tents and all it seems to do is enable the problem, while those who want to work and get on with thier lives get nothing.....

They do this to every country n everyone they dont trust. This is not anything new. Guess you dont watch border security then. This is nonsense. Nothing to do with Africans only. Stop it

Guess what this is the only thing buoying economic growth for your western country. You need immigrants and the government knows that.

Aside from immigration, I guess they also need to ensure the elderly don’t live too long.

the trouble with immigration policy in canada is that it is no longer tied with the economic need but has become rooted in an idea that immigration is something that is always progressive and desirable. Hence, the more the better, has been the guiding principle for years. any discussion of the merits of liberal immigration policy was discouraged and any questioning of an ever growing number of newcomers was portrayed as racist. bad actors in the form of unscrupulous businesses capitalized on this attitude and started importing ever larger number of temporary foreign workers which depressed wages and incomes. To the mix were added international students who came into the country in their hundreds of thousands in search of work and eventual permanent residence rather than education. critical mass was reached in 2022 and was further exacerbated in 2023. things got so completely out of control that even LPC - the champions of large scale immigration, had to implement some half-baked and half-hearted measures to stem the flow. where this will end up is anybody's guess but once the floodgates are open, they are virtually impossible to close. i am sure we will be dealing with the consequences of imprudent immigration policies for years if not decades to come.

Just for your information. A simple logical search can give you abundant knowledge and probably enhance everyone's perspectives.\n\nIndia\n2022 Nominal GDP in Current U.S. Dollars: $3.39 trillion\n2022 PPP Adjusted GDP in Current International Dollars: $11.87 trillion\n2022 GDP Growth: 7%\n2022 Nominal GDP Per Capita in Current U.S. Dollars: $2,388\n\nCanada\n2022 Nominal GDP in Current U.S. Dollars: $2.14 trillion\n2022 PPP Adjusted GDP in Current International Dollars: $2.27 trillion\n2022 GDP Growth: 3.4%\n2022 Nominal GDP Per Capita in Current U.S. Dollars: $54,967\n\nIndia is a much richer country than Canada and is much stronger economically as well. Probably since it's far and since education is so scarce in the information age maybe it's difficult for people here to comprehend. The only reason India is lacking behind is because of it's abundant population and it was not blessed with self rule up until 1947 which kind of derailed it's progress by years thanks to European Colonization and discrimination. \nJust as an example for folks who are ignorant to see India as a third world or poor or poorly run country - \n* The way India handled Covid for 1+ billion people is something close to impossible for Canada with a meagre population of around 40 million. \n* You don't have to wait for months or weeks for normal checkups, MRIs, doctors and so on. \n* You don't have to pay $50+ per month for a meagre 10-30gb data instead it's less than $4 per month for 1-2gb/day data (yes per day)\n* The military budget of India is 66 billion dollars while Canada's is a meagre 26 Billion dollars.\n* India is capable of launching advanced missions in Space and has single handedly indigenously created aircrafts to land in moon and space exploration.\n* India has home grown automobile companies like Tata Motors (which owns Jaguar and Land Rover), Mahindra and many more while I don't see any homegrown automobile companies in Canada.\n* India has more than 170 billionaires while Canada has around 70.\n* India's richest people won't even bother to invest in Canada because it's not a viable market, but the economy in India is booming and will continue to do so.\n* Despite the population the country is managing in such a way that Canada can only dream off. Just because you had the privilege and the means to be developed does not give you the right to demean other nations. It's really nothing that you did, it's just pure luck, right place, right time, white superiority, destruction and so on which enables you to live such privileged lives and now you are crying when people are actually working hard to provide some competition.\n\nDon't you think regardless of race or ethnicity, every human being deserves the best life? \n\nBefore you judge a country do some research. \n\nYes, the people in general have a different thought process where in prominence is not given to space, way of living, probably you can put it up as standard of living and the quality of thought process. But that's always the case with generalization. I know it's hard not to when you see it, but being a better human is all about thinking beyond that. Yes people in India are general prone to having a shortcut process, at the same time, highly skilled people are abundantly present. In the information sector and other highly skilled areas, they are present earning loads of money which reverberates to more tax money for the government. \n\nI know that they have major issue with absorbing the host country culture and I believe that can probably or maybe alleviated by having some cultural programs so that they can fit into the society so that the Canadian culture is upheld. It's always difficult to see changes around you and your home being in your words being raided by foreign entities. Guess what? The world is filled with different ethnic groups. Hundreds of years ago all your native homes were part of the indigenous people here and they didn't even have time to complain or lament online when the Europeans butchered them and massacred their homelands, claiming the land and setting up as their own. Now you are in a position to call something your home and we all know what all your ancestors did regardless of how good you are right now. The least you can do is not comment such provocatively online against other ethnicities or is this atrocity still there in your blood. It's very simple. Try to think beyond frustration and be grateful for what you have. \n\nBy the way I can write more but I don' think it's worth my time but maybe positive things can happen if you put your mind into.

Good morning Sir,\n\nI am a first generation immigrant to Canada, originally from India. I have visited 29 countries all over the world including Canada. The longest I have ever lived continuously in a city/town is Calgary. \n\nCanada is the only country where you are allowed to bring your cultural baggage , shamelessly refuse to accept country's culture and make no efforts to integrate. \n\nThis is not about my fellow country persons but all other immigrants.\n\nI guess this is the new social order. I accept it and keep my interaction with people to a minimum.\n\nThe populist politicians rip apart the social fabric to suit their greed for power; the intensity varies from from country to country; Canada leads followed by the western democracies. Japan is an exception where a gaijin is always a gaijin.

India is overpopulated as hell with 1,5 billion citizen and still growing.Do the math.If only 1 procent decides to immigrate it is 15 million. And guess how fast these immigrants will double or triple in numbers when they have usually 4 or 5 children.And due to their culture they 99% marry only with other Indians.

Argh, I've thinking for years to move from Morocco to Canada... I guess I am better being poor here than poor there.

I remember in Alberta in the late 70s, hearing them being referred to as Packies because they would cram 4 families into 1 house. Also, it's probably an ethnic reference. \nI guess that's what the lady at the 10:20 mark was also speaking of when describing a house with 15 people living in it.

there's sometimes a tussle between the older migrants gen1 milltown farming bunch compared to the india 2.0 millenials. I don't know what choice of words my old punjabi friend said to the clerk at the Fruiticana but you could just tell by non verbal cues alone some resentment and conflict subsides. sure it's a single unique moment but i guess my friend had some lowkey pent up dismay to let out. he's from Williams Lake so he's definitely old school! if that made any sense

Let me guess??? Socialism!!!!!!!

Gee and I guess only Canada has seen inflation, eh? Only Canada has food gone up 10%? What are you talking about, balance with rest of world would maybe be valid, no?

Guess they finally learned that the U.S. is an awful place to migrate to that they gave up trying to enter the U.S. illegally.

Then leave I guess sounds like a lot of rich kids in these comments that never had bills

Guess who just watch's main stream tv?

Oh guess who created this problem in then first place 75 years ago? The British. And guess who has been launching strikes at civilians everyday for decades? ISNOTREAL! we really need to start using Google and researching more often. Lovely information out there to learn the truth.

He said Everyday Palestine bombs Israel??!!! what the hell...!!! I guessed he watched wrong news. Shame on him and shame on the medias who spread fake news.

I guess a country like Canada has a different outlook and perspective on the future \nThe world is changing in so many ways and countries that are sticking to the old ways might find themselves in ruins \nSo I think it’s all about the abilities to see what lays ahead and being prepared to Manoeuvre around it.

Don't you think this is a bit sensationalist to say no one wants to live here, considering millions are immigrating each year (way too many of course, but clearly many people want to live here)? The housing shortage started decades ago with the defunding of CMHC, which you didn't even mention. I guess it's convenient to have one (contemporary) scapegoat as opposed to realizing that all of these are systemic and GLOBAL issues that have been brewing for some time. Political parties are simply corporate pawns, and this is the same the world over.

And let me guess the west won’t considered this to be hate speech since those targeted are Muslims and Palestinians. And if it happen to be anyone other than those two group than it would be seen as hate speech.

I guess Anti-Semitism to him is only against Israeli Semites, not Arab Semites? This guy would definitely be called anti-semite if he said half of this to our Jewish cousins.

A taste of their own medicine. \nWhat are you complaining about? \nI guess it's just your nature

I guess you never found any indigenous people, drug and other problems not caused by South Asian people Brampton people abandoned by successive governments on the alter of free enterprise.\n But let’s revert to overt racism and blame all the Indians for the problems of Brampton that appeals to our \nBaser instincts that’s easier than looking at the exploitation and oppression inherent here

I guess someone's out of a job this morning.

My step son was working the other day and he is Muslim. He stopped to pray at a park on the beach and the young officer called backup accusing him of being high on drugs because he was praying. I guess he was clueless to one of the world’s largest dominations. SMH luckily the other officers showed up and once my son was as done praying he was able to educate him and the other officers had a laugh

Guess what they all vote liberal because they are given favor by the government.My city is not in Ontario but it has been overrun with immigrants,rents have gone way up and every where you go jobs are taken by immigrants.

At 9:50, the lady in black, she is a total hypocrite! She doesn't like the over populated immigration but she herself sounds like an immigrant! She mentioned she is French, and I am guessing she is from France? Look who is calling the kettle black! Like most if not all, they are looking for opportunities. Learning English is not going to happen over night! Then at 13:12, the presenter points out an interesting observation. He noted that drug problems, he didn't see any Indians with drug problems (although, I am sure drug problems exist in all ethnicities) but notably he saw white Canadians with this problem. Indians weren't camping out at shelters begging for hand outs. So, why are Indians being blamed? Just because there are TOO MANY? That is ridiculous. Moreover, I think these losers are just jealous because Indians and/or other immigrants come to Canada, seeking that dream and have worked hard for it. They pay their taxes and taxes fund government hand out programs, like the presenter noted, to drug seeking white Canadians!

Trudeau did say he wanted to replace old stock Canadians. I guess he kept that promise.

They've also taken over the nice part of Buffalo, NY. The beautiful playing field behind my old school is now a cricket ground for the rich Indians. I guess the kids have to find somewhere else to play.

i loved to mexico during covid, stayed here. Guess what?I didnt try to change or demand that mexico be canadianfor me. I learned spanish, integrated into mexican culture and tried to learn as much as i could. And they appreciate it. ALL of these people need to do the same. Its infuriating.

Even Indian people began to say Canada has too many Indians, I guess this is how bad the situation is.

Have you seen the people that have been hired and are working at Canada Immigration the last 30 years? Guess who?

It doesn't equate to UK have colonised every country is being seceded by the British missionaries in ambience of how to force another inferior ethnicity to convert into their Christian worldview we won't tolerate it anymore as a Muslim we are migrating in your country to take over for years to come guess what Muslim will become the majority has appointed as a Muslim Mp to the point where banning porn are publicly legalised in Uk is going to be increased anyone dares to tackle this Islamic policy will be punished by our jurisprudence so Christians so your days is outnumbered don't mess with us Muslims that really doesn't have to comply to your law is sadistic as obvious it could be.

Hats off to this guy for dealing with this ugly situation with so much maturity and patience. The customer should be ashamed of his behaviour but I guess that's wishful thinking. He's out there probably insecure and belittling other people who are just trying to make an honest living.

Let me guess , all the Indian people vote liberal

Yeah, I can guess the color of man abusing... it dark as hell....

A couple of girls I know applied to a Dollar tree as recent graduates and looking for work to save up and pay for college. A week later, they went to the same store in time to see about a dozen indian men and women applying. I looked at her and said, well I guess you can kiss your chance for a job goodbye. Both never got a call.

Druggiiieee I guess???

Let me guess, behind the camera its an average muslims.

Brampton was nice place to live back in the day. Now it is a shithole, infested with crime, violence and everything else. Toronto has been well upon its way there for more than a decade . I guess cultural enrichment and diversity struck again. \n\nThis what happens when a country no longer controls its borders and has no say as to who comes in and how many. Canadians are living those end results and consequences in real time. The thing is that too many of them voted for this and are too passive, apathetic or spineless to say or do anything. Which isn’t necessarily all that different from the rest of Western countries.\n\nPeople who don’t care about Canada, Canadian culture, values etc. Canada has just become a port of convenience, where people, like in this case from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka etc., land, and are more interested in “what can you give me”, “ what can you do for me”, no forethought of hey, maybe this is a two-way street where something is also expected from me to give back to the country and society that gave me an opportunity. If this is allowed to continue it will only get worse.

I guess the one thing Canadians had is gone. Not sure if this could happen in any other country.

It's India plus inclusivity and diversity. If you happen to be a white in the job market and share familiar credentials, guess what the deal breaker is going to be

Sure everyone in power in Scotland is white because Scotland is and has been made from white people now Indians want that country too . How many whites lives in India not one I guess
